"This peer support group is a safe and welcoming environment for women to come together to offer each other hope and encouragement through the challenging life transition of menopause.
"It's an opportunity for local women to drop in and benefit from professional speakers, menopause education and awareness, refreshments, peer support and exercises activities which will help in managing menopause symptoms.
